  1. Titanium is a nice plugin. Is it worth 59? Hmmm thereabouts.
  2. You know those dreamy ambient soundscapes of which there are a gaziljon on Youtube? With generic descriptions ("I was longing for peace and....") and cheesy titles (dream the dream!). I'm joining the club. But seriously, I tried my hands at Wotja. The weird thing was, when I tried it with the built-in sounds, the CPU usage shot through the roof (I'm running an I9 12th gen!), so be careful. But when I routed the midi to a different track and switched off the internal sound, all was well. This was my first walk in the Wotja park, so I didn't really knew wat I was doing. I'm missing a lot of setup options I think, but the result was very pleasing. I tried another (not uploaded yet) where I routed the midi to 3 tracks, so a piano, pads and some granular thing are all playing at the same time. Oh it's 1 hour long, I won't hold it against you guys if you don't watch it till the end ("stick around till the end, you won't believe what happens next" *insert soyboy face).
  3. Well, here is a new one. So far I'm keeping up with my 1 per week. I had the idea of that gritty Malevolent layered with the SE-02 and then some nice bright contrast with the Matriarch. But I couldn't really get drums to fit. I nearly gave up until I decided to fire up the Drumbrute, changed the beat to an electro type beat and suddenly it worked! Tried some new angles with the camera's, not a great succes as there's now only 1 camera that had me in frame and that is my lowest quality camera 🤣. Oh well, live & learn.
  4. €199 is too much money right now (I recently bought the Lyra-8, so that's my music budget for a couple of months gone). And the Essentials bundle only has the 8bit synth and Drum designer i'm really interested in, so that's not worth the €89. I'll pass.
  5. Me too, waiting for the summer to upgrade my Komplete.
  6. Fun! THE 90s piano is from the Korg M1 (preset Piano16) and is available in their VST. Add THAT bass from the same M1 (preset Organ 2) and you're good to go.
  7. These plugins are also in your account for free if you purchased something from them in the past.
  8. Nothing for me, but a reminder that until the 5th of March you can get about 90% off some bundled UVI products with Image Line. It seems you don't have to have FL Studio to qualify. https://www.image-line.com/uvi?utm_source=IL_news&utm_medium=ct&utm_campaign=uvi-IL_news-0223
  9. Don't do it man! I've had multiple cherry flavoured beers, this one included, and they are all terrible (no offense Cherry Audio). It's a drunken lesson I did and will repeat many times over.
  10. Ah the infamous vampire hunter and inventor of the word 'humongous', which, up to that point in time was simply called 'thy mother'. Of whom the story of how to meet her was not televised but widely known. Mostly amongst the seafaring folk. Which is derived from the Dutch "zeevarend", not to be confused with "zeearend" which is a sea eagle. The most American thing ever and still a better unit of measurement than inches.
  11. Boy was I wrong about the coalplants per cubic drinkwatercontaminations system. I thought it was a nice thing that heating up 1L of water (which weighs 1 KG) with 1°C requires 1Kcal of energy. Turns out it's way better to tune a pitchfork to 440Hz, launch a rocketship to the moon, have the pitchfork resonate there and while ignoring a vacuum have the sound travel 310 hours (or 3674 Mount Rushmores per McDonalds) to reach earth again. Cherry Audio's new synth will do all of this. With polyphony!
  12. Oops, my bad. It apparantly is. Soooo, what is the significance of 440? Besides the band Apollo 440. Speaking of Apollo, the moon mission used a mixture. Its a miracle the thing got of the ground.
  13. To be honest, I had to look it up. I just knéw there had to be a term for this phenomena. And to be totally honest, soylent grin was the first thing that came up, but I wanted something more derogative to express my contempt. I have unsubscribed for less.
  14. They also have excellent service. I had a, let's say, dispute with a reseller (audioplugindeals) who were unwilling to help. But Wave Alchemy did even when they didn't had to.
  15. I absolutely HATE these kind of thumbnails. The sad thing is that it is supposed to work. We (the people of the internets) should make it a thing that the moment we see this cuckface behaviour, we should flood the comments with hints of what he/she should put in there. Like a baguette or something...😇
  16. Impossible. I've seen you install recordings of a broken drumstick flopping against ballistic gel. This one is actually useful.
  17. I think I can safely say I got most of my weird issues worked out. Everything is working as designed. And I can't really tell how happy I am. Just switch on a random synth, start playing, it works, it sounds great. I'm learning a LOT about my synths by just playing around, failing and then making it work. Take the Matriarch arp, it sounded nice, but not amazing. So I just upped the arp speed and suddenly everything clicked! I'm learning to play live for which I'm taking lessons. I try to at least play 1 synth live in a jam session. Let me know what you think!
  18. I know, but I'm not playing these American games 😜. It's always 7 freedomeagles per square hummer or something like that. Nothing relates, it's total chaos. Ok there's 12 inch in a foot. But there's 5280 feet in a mile. Which is not a multitude of 12. Why would you sandwich a day between a month and a year?!! "What's the date? Oh is january....." No you start with a number! And if someone is confused, thén you give them the month.
  19. Really solid product, use this a lot and would set it above Substance by Output. And Drum Tools 02 is a huge sample pack.
  20. It's a long wait until the 3rd of july. Let's just agree that the corrrect order of things is NOT smaller --> smallest --> small. Anyway, I don't mind Cherry Audio. They have some nice products (not groundbvreaking, but nice), they are priced according to that and I use some of their synths as a preset template for the hardware versions I own (CA2600 and PS20).
  21. Nice, will get this with the forever 29.
  22. I haven't checked out the sounds yet, but it looks like this is right up my alley. Now the question, in what Komplete tier will it be?
  23. I don't know, but if that's true, it seems really weird that the compressor has a list price on PA of €299 and on PB €36.
  24. "VSTBuzz is 10 years old! Use coupon VST10OFF for an extra 10% off"
